On Friday, Sunday School children and their
parents from Immanuel Lutheran, rural Iroquois, purchased items for kids on the
Salvation Army Angel Tree. The Sunday School children asked the congregation
for donations and since they were so generous, they were each able to adopt an
angel that was their age and purchase a gift for them. The kids had so much fun
picking out presents and learned how important giving to others was! After
shopping, they enjoyed supper together and then went caroling at StoneyBrook
Suites Assisted Living and to a couple of our elderly church members’ houses. This morning, they got to show & tell the congregation what they
purchased for their angel before delivering the presents. They cannot wait
until next year to do it again. THANK YOU FOR DONATING!!!!
